Welcome To The Freshpedition
The new French Door Refrigerator is so advanced, the only way we could prove it was by putting it to the ultimate test. So we filled one up with the freshest food we could find, hooked it up to a generator and ventured over 2,000 miles to a remote desert to surprise a homesick scientist with a home-cooked meal. Since the refrigerator wasn’t exactly designed for a rough-and-tumble cross-country adventure, we were a bit concerned at first. As it turns out, the fridge was one of the only things that went according to plan.
